Bring the spirit of the Pacific coast home. California Coastal: Seaside Living from Sea Ranch to San Diego is a beautifully produced hardback celebrating modern seaside living along California’s dramatic shoreline, north to south. Written by Chase Reynolds Ewald and Heather Sandy Hebert, the book features eighteen inspiring homes that balance architecture with nature: light-filled interiors, raw textures, ocean-framed views, and a laid-back, indoor-outdoor lifestyle.

From windswept bluffs and redwood forests to palm-lined beaches, this coastal survey pairs evocative photography with thoughtful writing on materials, landscape, and design choices that withstand the elements. It’s a lasting addition to your coffee table, a rich reference for renovators, and the perfect gift for lovers of coastal style.

Style it with a scented candle and a stone tray for an effortless vignette. Explore more in our Books & Coffee Table Books and Coastal Decor edits. Add Gift Wrap or an e-Gift Card for easy gifting.
